Based on the consistency in his postings, I think it's a natural ability.

Here's a config with Westhash as primary and Nicehash as fail-over:

{
  "pools": [
    {
      "url": "stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3333/#xnsub#skipcbcheck",
      "user": "<ADDRESS HERE>",
      "pass": "<PASSWORD HERE>,d=16384"
    },
    {
      "url": "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333/#xnsub#skipcbcheck",
      "user": "<ADDRESS HERE>",
      "pass": "<PASSWORD HERE>,d=16384"
    }
  ],
  "failover-only": true,
  "scrypt-n": 10
}

After 20 hours with diff set to 8192, I had an effective rate of 326 MH/s and 7.1% rejects. So apparently the Titan still doesn't work very well at westhash/nicehash. Back to clevermining

I'm on the west coast of the US so I assume westhash is closer and that's my primary with nicehash as a failover. The ping times are quite similar though.

I set difficulty to 8192 and I'm going to let that run until I check it later tomorrow. I already tried with no diff and that produced 330 MH/s effective hashrate and 5.2% reject rate after 24 hours. That might be the best I get if I stayed at westhash.

Thanks for the additional feedback. I've been using the #xnsub and #skipbccheck all along based on a posting/recommendation on the KNCMiner forum on 1/10/15 which said the following:

    We suggest you to use #xnsub AND #skipcbcheck parameters to get stable mining on NiceHash or WestHash, example:

         stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com/#xnsub#skipcbcheck

       With those settings you'll be able to get a stable 350 Mh/s average speed with fw 1.95 overclocking at 325MHs.

And the poster posted this screenshot https://www.nicehash.com/imgs/KnC_Titan_NiceHash.png as "proof" but to me that looks like 320 MH/s over 1253 hours, not 350 and what looks like 0.00% rejects .

Based on the screenshot, about an hour ago I tried 16384 and I'm currently at an effective hashrate of 327 MH/s with a reject rate of 6.5% so I still apparently haven't located the secret decoder combination of settings which will get me mining at app 340-350 with a reject rate of around 1-2%.

Wrong info from me about the mining software. The Titan uses bfgminer v 5.0.0 so extranonce isn't an issue.

Based on what the Westhash site recommends for difficulty I used 32768 which is the recommendation for a hashrate of 64MHs - 128MHs, although I'm over that at app 330-350 MH/s, but the 64 - 128 MH/s is the highest range on their chart.

After 6 hours with that difficulty my hashrate is way lower than I get elsewhere (327 vs 340+ at clevermining) and rejects is at 6.8, so that difficulty isn't the answer.

I keep hearing (actually only from Nicehash/Westhash people) that the Titan works on Nicehash/Westhash and gets 350 MH/s with low rejects, etc but every time I try it I get lower hashrate and high rejects. I'll probably head back to clevermining - where my return might be very slightly less - but I can set the miner and forget it and get a high hashrate and low rejects.

Is anyone mining Westhash with a KncMiner Titan? I tried Westhash for about 24 hours and the hashrate was ok at app 330 MH/s but cgminer was showing 5.2% reject rate. Any way to get the reject rate down?

Thanks,

What I'm doing is looking at the hashrate chart/graph for my miner. For each date there is a graph point that displays my 24 hr avg hashrate. I multiply that figure by the "BTC per 1 MH/s" obtained from the "Daily Details" chart for the same date.

Thanks for your help. Maybe, I'll try pm'img the mysterious/reclusive Terk or most likely I won't and will just accept what might be another passive/agressive rip-off by the altcoin industry. Plus, isn't there some requirement I have to meet in order to pm from this forum?

Just an observation (and this is in no way directed toward you; you provided much appreciated assistance and feedback) but based on my experience, the customer support/service in the altcoin industry is the worst of any industry with which I have ever been involved. I ordered a Titan from KncMiner and that experience was absolutely legendary in it's terribleness; it was so terrible it was awe-inspiring and beautiful in its own way.

To get in contact with somebody from Clevermining - whom I believe I am generating capital for when I mine there - is some mysterious, undocumented process which apparently requires pm'ing from this forum. Their website definitely isn't showing any Contact Us type of information and "Terk" isn't exactly a presence on this forum from what I can see.

I was having a disconnection issue with the US server from about 12/21 - about 12/28. I'd wake up or come home from work to a not mining miner (Titan) showing a "Pool 1: Unknown stratum msg ..." type of error. I have a back up pool configured but failover didn't work.

It got so bad with so much downtime, I went over to litecoinpool.org for about a week. Since moving back to clevermining the issue hasn't recurred.

Yes, I'm looking at coins received because that's what matters.

Every day - with a very, very few exceptions, the BTC/day per MH/s multiplied by my avg hash rate per that 24 hours is more (usually by a good amount) than the btc I receive.

The next day is the same thing.

It's not like I ever receive an out-of-band catch up payment and the "immature/unexchanged/unpaid balance remaining at CM" every day appears to remain at CM forever.

Am I missing something besides a good amount of btc?

Also, is there some way to directly contact CM support/this person Terk, or is this thread the only means of support?

Thanks

On a non-guldencoin related question:

How come my 24 hour payout amount seldom - if ever - matches the BTC/day per MH/s multiplied by my avg hash rate per that 24 hours.

If, for some illogical reason, BTC/day per MH/s multiplied by my avg hash rate per that 24 hours is not what I should be getting paid, what is the secret formula?
